I don't like to go out w/ people im close to

I know that usually people would like to be close to the people that they will go out with. I refuse to do so because I do not want to lose good friendships with my good friends. Yes, of course, I do like to go out with people - the thing is that I will only go out with people that I'm not good friends with yet, or really haven't payed much attention to until I decided to ask them out. Is it normal that I will not go out with friends that are important to me, and will only go out with those of whom that I do not talk to very often?

    I'm the same way. One of my guy friends who I've known my entire life is pushing me to go out with him, he's really good looking, but I keep avoiding it, because I know how well I know him, and it feel's almost a little uncomfortable to even think of such a thing as him and I being a couple. And this other guy who I met in middle school wants to go out with me too, but we went through almost all our years of schooling together, and he even goes to the same college as me now. We were lab partners for a year in high school. And we went to the prom together as friend's, but I just don't like the thought of him being my boyfriend.

    When my friend asked me why I never give him(the second guy) a chance, my excuse was, "I know him too well.".

  • You can't let yourself be led by fear. It will inevitably lead you to the thing you fear the most.

    But I know what you're talking about. I feel it all the time.
